we have the expression


(4.8\cdot10^8)/(1.2\cdot10^4)\cdot2.2\cdot10^((-6))

Solve the quotient first

so


\begin{gathered} (4.8\cdot10^8)/(1.2\cdot10^4)=(4.8)/(1.2)\cdot10^((8-4)) \\ \\ 4\cdot10^4 \end{gathered}

substitute in the original expression


\begin{gathered} 4\cdot10^4\cdot2.2\cdot10^((-6))=(4\cdot2.2)\cdot10^((4-6)) \\ 8.8\cdot10^((-2)) \end{gathered}

the answer is

8.8x10^-2
